1963 photos: From August, 1958 until July 1963, our family lived Caracas, Venezuela. Dad worked for Standard Oil of New Jersey which had acquired Creole Petroleum Corporation and its oil fields in Lake Maracaibo back in 1928. In 1950, Creole opened its oil fields in Amuay Bay. In 1951, Creole was the world's largest oil producer. We lived in Caracas until July, 1963 at which point we moved back to New York. Creole was nationalized by the Venezuelan government in 1975. Venezuela had forced its military dictator Pérez Jiménez out of office in January, 1958. A democratic government struggled for decades afterward although Cuban-sponsored Communist terrorists were a problem in the 1960s while we were there. Oil prices, which were the main source of income for the country, went through the roof in the 1970s, resulting is massive government spending. This led to massive debts once prices fell in the 1980s, resulting in riots and political chaos, with Hugo Chavez attempting a coup in 1992. He was later pardoned and elected dictator in 1998. From 1963 to 1966, our family lived in Chappaqua, New York while Dad worked for Standard Oil of New Jersey in the 30 Rock building in New York City. From 1953 to 1976, the bulk of these pictures were taken by my Dad, Glenn Guthrie At the time, he was using a complicated, but normal for the day, manual Kodak with light meters and such. All of Dad's pictures from this time were slides. In 2020, I collected all of Dad's slides (some of which had been in Mom's possession after the divorce) and digitized them for the site.
